A Correct answer
Explanation

Test execution tools can record test inputs, replay them according to scripts, and compare expected vs actual outcomes. However, they cannot automatically generate expected outputs - this requires human knowledge of what the correct results should be. Expected outcomes must be specified by testers or derived from specifications. The tool automates execution and verification, not test design.
